The image, originally taken in Beni, is falsely attributed to an airport in Minembwe. The runway, known as Wageni, was built in the 1990s by the Enzymes Raffiners Association (ENRA) and is no longer in use. The article provides historical context and clarifies that the photo does not depict any current illicit activities.

At 24, Rachel Zihindula from Goma has been recruited by FIFA as an international referee, recognized for her rigorous and firm refereeing. The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) faces various challenges, including the financial dependency of families on relatives in Europe, who are unable to assist due to the Covid-19 crisis. Teachers in North Kivu are experiencing hardships with unpaid salaries amid the pandemic. The ANR's prisons are notorious, with conditions still to be verified despite closure claims. Goma is dealing with a high murder rate, raising safety concerns. Post-Kabila Congo holds hopes for a better life, despite controversies surrounding Félix Tshisekedi's victory.

04 Mar 2022  |  congocheck.net
Images circulating on social media claiming to show a man marrying three twin sisters in Sud-Kivu are actually scenes from a film. Congo Check verified the information by interviewing the actor who played the groom, the cameraman, and a local filmmaker, all of whom confirmed the event was staged for a movie. The video was filmed in Goma, and the actors involved are not married in real life. The misinformation has been widely shared and believed by many online.

07 Jul 2020  |  congocheck.net
A widely shared claim about the discovery of a 244-carat diamond in the Mongbengbe River is false. Congo Check's investigation found no evidence supporting the claim. The precious stone was actually found in the Tshuapa province, not Mongala.

Mongala's governor, Bienvenue Seti, stated that there is no information about such a discovery in his province.

False, the social fund of the DRC did not require the Covid-19 vaccine for its day laborers

18 Jun 2020  |  congocheck.net
Several social media posts falsely claim that the Social Fund of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) requires its day laborers to get the Covid-19 vaccine before working. A video shared on WhatsApp and other platforms shows people protesting this alleged requirement. However, Congo Check's investigation reveals that the vaccine in question is actually a tetanus vaccine, not a Covid-19 vaccine. The Social Fund's communication team clarifies that the tetanus vaccine has long been required for worker protection. The DRC has not introduced any Covid-19 vaccines as of the date of the article.

Attention, this protocol on medications taken in isolation hospitals for Coronavirus patients is false

13 Jun 2020  |  congocheck.net
A message circulating on social media claiming to list medications taken by COVID-19 patients in isolation hospitals is false, according to Congo Check. The official protocol validated by the Democratic Republic of the Congo's health authorities in March 2020 does not include these medications. The official protocol emphasizes community approaches to slow transmission, such as proper hand hygiene, social distancing, and symptomatic treatment for confirmed cases. Eric Kitsa, a communication coordinator for the COVID-19 response, confirms that any medical protocol must be validated by the scientific team and government, not shared through social media.

Coronavirus: There is no evidence of monetization of corpses by the response team in the DRC

22 May 2020  |  congocheck.net
Several videos circulating in Kinshasa hospitals claim to show evidence of monetization of corpses by COVID-19 response teams. However, investigations by Congo Check reveal these claims to be false. John Bokene, an administrator at the Cinquantenaire Hospital, and Steve Ahuka Mundeke, Incident Manager in the COVID-19 response, refute these allegations, explaining the protocols and financial constraints faced by the response teams. The misinformation has led to community resistance and attacks on response teams, further complicating efforts to manage the pandemic.
